Shriekback

Fish below the ice

Shriekback
Well the mouth is open and the noise comes out
Ain't no reason for it, just a need to shout
It's malnutrition, we could fall apart
It's never delicate: just something from the Iron Age

Yeah we shake it up, and we break it down
The sound of a satellite saying get me down
Yeah we shake it up, and we break it down
Hear the Voice of America in your home town

Well the film is running 'til the film runs out
There's no point of focus it zooms in and out
It's information and it leaves no mark
It's just as permanent as paintings in the Iron Age

I'm plugged in and loading
Don't forget to phone in
The self destruct is holding
I'm counting, I'm counting, but only to three

We get it right sometimes
We shine a light sometimes
We see the fish below the ice sometimes
Stand up and fight sometimes
We get the fright sometimes
How will we ever pay the price this time?

Yeah we shake it up, and we break it down
The sound of a satellite saying get me down
Yeah we shake it up, and we break it down
It's East European, it's West European
It's moving so fast, it goes all the way around

He's on a mission from God (we shake it up)
But he don't know whose (we break it down...)
And he don't know why

Says I'm not a light in the darkness
I'm like a shadow on the lungs

I'm balanced here on the edge of anger
I'm standing here on an empty page
Sooner or later I'll start receiving
I've been standing here for days
